Introduction to Java
Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming Java is known for its simplicity, robustness, security,
language widely used for building software and portability. These features make it suitable for
applications. It is platform-independent, meaning it can various applications, from mobile apps to enterprise
run on different operating systems. systems.
Java Basics: Data Types
and Variables
Data Types Variables
Java supports various data Variables are used to store
types, including integers, data in a program. They
floating-point numbers, have a name and a data
booleans, and strings. Each type, and their values can

values and operations. execution.
Operators and Expressions
Arithmetic
Perform mathematical operations like addition, subtraction,
1
multiplication, division, and modulus.
Comparison
2
Used to compare values, resulting in a boolean value (true or false).
Logical
3 Combine boolean expressions using operators like
AND, OR, and NOT.
Control Structures:
Conditional Statements
If-Else
Executes a block of code based on a condition.
Switch
Selects a block of code to execute based on a value.
Control Structures: Loops
For Loop
1
Executes a block of code a specified number of times.
While Loop
2
Executes a block of code as long as a condition is true.
Do-While Loop
3 Similar to a while loop, but the code block is executed
at least once before the condition is checked.

methods.
Exception Handling
1 Exceptions are runtime errors that disrupt the
normal program flow. They can be caused by various
factors, such as invalid input, file access issues, or
network errors.
2 Exception handling involves using try-catch blocks to
capture and handle exceptions, preventing the
program from crashing. This allows for graceful error
recovery and more robust applications.
3 Finally blocks ensure that specific actions, like
closing resources, are executed regardless of
whether an exception occurred or not.
